Managing client projects
PlanningPME Web Access helps you to improve project monitoring and managing your clients.
Thus, when you create an event in PlanningPME Web Access, by selecting a client, only those projects associated with that client will be displayed. And conversely, by selecting a project, the associated client will automatically be displayed. For this, you need to activate an option:
Adapting the project filter according to the clientTo adapt the Project filter as a function of the client, you only need to activate the option in the menu Parameters Options -> Task -> Adapt the project filter according to the client.
How the "Client" filter works
By filtering the scheduling according to the client, only projects associated with the client are displayed.
Monitoring a project from the “event” tab
An “Event” tab appears in the Project window detailing all the tasks which have been assigned to the project since the project started.
Additional fields in the Project window
You may create several additional fields in the Project window See the chapter concerning the creation of additional fields.
Managing sub-projects
A sub-project may be created associated with a specific project. For this, go to the menu Parameters -> Options -> Task -> Associate a sub-project with a task.
Adding a sub-project
Adding a sub-project is handled directly from the project window. Enter your sub-project and click on Save.
Assigning a sub-project to a task
When creating a task in the schedule, you may associate it with a project and one or more sub-projects.
Other options concerning projects
Personalising the terms "Projects" and "Sub-projects"
So that the terms used in PlanningPME Web Access reflect perfectly your own activity, you may rename the terms "Project" and "Sub-project" from the menu Parameters and Format.
Masking a project
From the “Project” creation window, you are able to mask a project when it has been completed so as to keep track of it in the archives but so that it no longer appears in any current schedules.
Color-coding projects
You may define a colour both for the text and the background for each project so that projects are easily distinguishable in the overall view of the event scheduling. To activate this option, go to the menu Parameters -> Options ->Task and choose "Project colors".
